RAILS                  
                                          
                                          
  
                                          
  
                                          
                                          
 TRAINS  ARE  SO  CONSTRUCTED  THAT  THEY 
 HAVE TO FOLLOW  A SET PATH. THIS PATH IS 
 CALLED A "RAILWAY", WHICH  IS  COMPRISED 
 OF TWO METAL RAILS, HENCE  ITS NICKNAME. 
                                          
 BECAUSE  THE LOW  FRICTION  BETWEEN  THE 
 WHEELS OF THE  TRAIN AND THE RAIL METAL, 
 THERE ARE  LIMITS FOR HOW ACUTE A  CURVE 
 CAN BE, AND EVEN  MORE  SO FOR HOW  MUCH 
 THE  GROUND  UNDER  THE  RAILS   CAN  BE 
 SLOPED. THUS A RAILWAY IS OFTEN NOT  LED 
 ON TOP OF HILLS, RATHER THROUGH  THEM IN 
 TUNNELS   (IF   THEY   ARE  LARGE),   OR 
            ARTIFICIAL CHASMS.            
                                          
 THERE WILL BE TREES  ON THE SIDE OF  THE 
 RAILS,  BUT  NOT TOO CLOSE, OR THEY WILL 
 BE CUT  DOWN  BY THE  RAILWAY  JANITORS. 
 THERE  WILL  BE PLAINS,  AND  BODIES  OF 
                  WATER.                  
                                          
 TRAINS GO  BY DAY  AND  BY NIGHT.  ALONG 
       THE WAY, THERE IS INFORMATION      
 SCATTERED,  OFTEN PUT  ON  TOP OF POLES, 
 TO BE INTERPRETED BY THE  TRAIN DRIVERS. 
 DIFFERENT  PARTS  OF  THE  RAILWAY  HAVE 
         DIFFERENT SPEED LIMITS.          
                                          
 SOMETIMES, TRAINS  HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT 
 FOR SOMETHING TO  HAPPEN, FAR AWAY. THIS 
 IS SIGNALED  BY  RED  OR  GREEN  LIGHTS. 
                                          
                                  
                                          
 MANY PEOPLE  FOLLOW  THE  RAILS BY FOOT. 
 OFTEN  THIS PROVES  TO  BE  THE  SHORTER 
 PATH BETWEEN  TWO POINTS.  HOWEVER  THIS 
 IS  FROWNED  UPON,  AND  VERY   IMPOLITE 
         TOWARD THE TRAIN DRIVERS!
